While WRA does not oppose a hearing on the Stipulation, WRA
intends to submit testimonyseeking modifications to
the stipulated outcome in conformance with some or all of the issues it has
identified above.

The bottom line is that even if the permitting agency
allows the salvage credit, the total net cost of decommissioning this project
today would be $10.4 million ($83,900/turbine). Our analysis quantified the
large scrap price and demo cost escalation risk being assumed by the local
community. To protect the community, the permitting agency should require a
bond of a minimum $100/K per turbine ($12.4 million) to capture demolition cost
escalation risk. If the wind developer can convince the bonding company of the
high salvage value, then they should be able to negotiate a lower rate for the
bond. If they were right, there would be very little price difference for a
larger $12+ million bond.
Shift the risk to the bonding company. Let the developer and
bonding company assume the price risk  not the
community.

[T]he rise in the use of renewable power, especially
in Europe, has led to surges of supply on sunny and windy days and
unpredictable lulls in conditions of cloud and calm. But that is a big
opportunity for demand-response companies, which use computing
power and clever algorithms to divert electricity from some consumers, such as
factories or greenhouses, to users who need it more. ...

To be credible, demand response must be reliable. Grid managers want
to know the power will be there when needed. That may favour the bigger
demand-response companiesand the utilities, which could dominate the
industry if they chose to enter it. Upstarts claim they have smarter
algorithms. They say they are creating prime electricity out of subprime
portfolios. That analogy will reassure neither customers nor
rulemakers.

The Economist, May 10 2014 page 65

Yes, I have read it. As I said before, the current
grid is not designed to effevtively distribute power from millions of small and
highly variable sources (the green energy sources) to millions of consumers.
Who will redesign the grid? Certainly not the large power generating companies
since they have no incentives to spend billions of dollars to help their
competition which is the millions of small green energy suppliers who do not
have a cent to spare even with heavy government (tax payer) subsidies.

Yes, and the more wide- spread they
become, the more these changes will go beyond the immediate area. Some effects,
such as groupd warming and drying for miles around, are already known, but
cumulative effects on the weather- especially if wind farming grows
significantly  are unpredictable.

One point to note is that
while wind farms are a source of renewable energy this doesnt mean they
 an other forms of renewable energy, for that matter don't cause
change. Even improved engineering of the turbines to reduce turbulence, etc.
cannot eliminate the fact that the machines remove energy from the wind, and
this will have an impact on the weather and ultimately the climate.

at the Prosperity solar facility.

Enclosed are copies of documents
located in the National Energy Technology Laboratorys (NETL) files
regarding participation in work at the Prosperity Switching Station. NETL was
involved with the battery energy storage system at the site, not the solar

More
troubling for wind fleet owners and operators is that many turbines are coming
off warranty. The end of last year marked the first time in U.S. history that
more wind turbines were operating out of warranty than were covered, according
to Wind Systems magazine, while many more are approaching the end of their
warranties. Hidden costs of maintenance have climbed sharply, though some
promising technologies may help reduce those costs, Energy Biz
noted.

We reviewed your request for expedited processing and
determined that it does not meet the requirements for compelling need under the

but you apparently did not follow FOIA rules which
requires

(6)

(A) Each agency, upon any request for records
made under paragraph (1), (2), or (3) of this subsection, shall

(i) determine within 20 days (excepting Saturdays, Sundays, and legal
public holidays) after the receipt of any such request whether to comply with
such request and shall immediately notify the person making such request of
such determination and the reasons therefor, and of the right
of such person to appeal to the head of the agency any adverse
determination; and

Another oddity is that Germany pays some of the lowest wholesale
prices for electricity in Europe, yet suffers from some of the highest retail
prices. Consumers are burdened with all manner of network fees, taxes and
ever-growing charges to subsidise renewable energy.

Unfortunately there is a large dark cloud towering
above this silver lining. Despite ever-increasing generation capacity, wind and
solar sources have failed to consistently produce power when it is needed or
significantly reduce German dependence upon traditional thermal generation
assets (coal and natural gas-fired plants and nuclear plants).
...

PV Solar generation also displays a great deal of variability
and of course is not available after sunset when electricity demand is still
quite high. The seasonal variation of PV generation in Germany is even more
disturbing with winter values less than a quarter of summer values.

With renewable generation varying by an order of magnitude across the
seasons and sometimes within a few hours at night how has the German electrical
sector managed to keep the lights on? By depending upon traditional thermal
generating assets which must be kept fully operational as "spinning reserves"
that are available at all times to back-up renewable sources.

and hence why large-scale solar generation of electricity may
be a scam/fraud.

Data in possession of PNM is likely to
prove or disprove allegation that large-scale solargeneration of
electricity is a scam/fraud. Open mouths and creative writing by the liberal
arts 'educated' may support scam/fraud?

ORDER DESIGNATING EMAIL AS PUBLIC COMMENT

THIS MATTER comes before the Hearing Examiner pursuant to an email
(attached as Exhibit A) received from William H. Payne on September 20, 2014.
The email is styled as a "Motion for Leave to Intervene and Request for
Discovery" in this case. The email, however, refers to PNM's Integrated
Resource Planning (flU') process, not to the issues in this case. The email
does not satisfy the requirements for intervention in this case (i.e., filing
with the Commission, service of the filing upon the parties to the proceeding,
statement of the movant's interest in the proceeding), so, to the extent there
is a request for intervention, it will not be granted.

IT IS hEREBY
ORDERED:

1. Mr. Payne's emailed request to intervene in this case is
denied.

2. The Commission's Records Bureau should file the attached
Exhibit A as a public comment in this case.

A.
Investigations by the commission: The commission may at any time investigate
any matter within its jurisdiction.

B. Proceedings filed by the
commission of its own motion: Formal proceedings may be initiated by the
commission to consider any matter within its jurisdiction against any person
either by notice, order to show cause, order to cease and desist, or other
process. In such cases the notice, order to show cause, or other appropriate
process shall contain:

(1) specifications of all the matters to be
considered and such specifications shall fairly indicate what the respondent is
to meet;

(2) a demand for such information and disclosures as the
commission may deem necessary to the question under investigation;

(3)
notice of the time within which such information and disclosures must be filed;

(4) the time and place set for public hearing; and

(5) if the
commission deems necessary, the manner of notice to the public or to
ratepayers.

1.2.2.23 INTERVENORS AND COMMENTERS: A. Intervention:
Any person other than staff and the original parties to a proceeding who
desires to become a party to the proceeding may move in writing for leave to
intervene in the proceeding.

(1) The motion for leave to intervene
shall indicate the nature of the movants interest in the proceeding.

(2) The motion shall also comply with the provisions of this rule
governing pleadings except that the motion shall indicate the facts relied upon
as grounds for intervention.

(3) Motions for leave to intervene
shall be served on all existing parties and other proposed intervenors of
record.

Referring to the Aug.
12 Business Outlook Lines Drawn in San Juan Debate, PNM wants gas and
nuclear to replace coal, but environmentalists want renewables.

Of course they do; the environmentalists have a one-track mind and will
accept nothing less than wind, solar and biomass to power your electricity.

No matter that its unreliable! No matter what it costs!

Cost is not a factor to the greenie crowd; they are going to save
the planet, and theyll do whatever they must to accomplish their
goal; the end justifies the means.

If you have to pay way more for
electricity, thats OK with them. You have to pay for what youve
done to the planet, whatever they think that is. ...

Yet even as those in favor of solar power are
celebrating victories along the way, there are new roadblocks appearing. Armed
with support from the American Legislative Exchange Commission (ALEC),
Arizonas state utility company is proposing to cut back savings on solar

Solar generation of
electricity is primary interest.

Water pumping with solar generated
electricity is another interest.

Two solar/electric water feature
systems are in operation on property.

Austin, TX water pumping is
reported to be the largest consumer of electricity, it is reported.

Five new generators are on track for completion this
decade, including two reactors approved just a few weeks ago (the first new
reactor approvals in the US in over 30 years). Those will add to the 104
reactors that are already in operation around the country and already produce
20% of the nations power.

Those reactors will eat up 19,724 tonnes of U3O8 this year,
which represents 29% of global uranium demand. If that seems like a large
amount, it is! The US produces more nuclear power than any other country on
earth, which means it consumes more uranium that any other nation. However,
decades of declining domestic production have left the US producing only 4% of
the worlds uranium.

With so little homegrown uranium, the United States has to
import more than 80% of the uranium it needs to fuel its reactors. Thankfully,
for 18 years a deal with Russia has filled that gap. The Megatons to
Megawatts agreement, whereby Russia downblends highly enriched uranium
from nuclear warheads to create reactor fuel, has provided the US with a
steady, inexpensive source of uranium since 1993. The problem is that the
program is coming to an end next year.

Federal seizure makes the law work
backward It is not a crime to do business in cash or to carry cash.

But
federal agents in New Mexico have a penchant for seizing assets and money and
being very reluc- tant to return them even when they haven't filed charges.

That's why Albuquerque used car dealer Reza Ella is in court fighting
the Department of Homeland Security's attempt to keep $841,883.84 it seized
from his business and personal bank accounts.

The feds allege Ella's
business doesn't generate enough sales to account for more than $1.7 million he
~iag deposited in local banks over 11 months. They say tie has kept the cash
deposits under the $10,000 limit that triggers currency transaction reports
being filed with the Department of the Treasury.

Someone who
"structures" deposits or withdrawals to avoid the reports is subject to
penalties.

Ella, a naturalized U.S. citizen from Iran, says fed- eral
agents started visiting him around the time of the 9/11 attacks and he thinks
the forfeiture a~t1on is because of his Iranian name and background. The U.S.
Attorney's Office says that is not so.

In 2007, federal prosecutors
seized nearly a half mil- lion dollars from Ella, but he got all but $12,000
ofit back. He wasn't charged with a crime then, and isn't now.

The feds
have filed a civil forfeiture action to keep the assets. Instead of the
government having to prove the accused's guilt, Ella must now prove he has a
legitimate source for the seized assets and did not deliberately structure
deposits to avoid federal reporting laws.

This is backward. If there's
a case to be made, the feds should pursue criminal charges. If not, the assets
should be returned.

Poor Edward Snowden. The man performed a valuable public service. He
should have gotten a medal on this Independence Day. Instead, he will have to
face the music.

"As Snowden looks for asylum, doors slam around the
world," says the International Herald Tribune.

Tuesday, the Russians
seemed to close their doors to him. Ecuador seems to be withdrawing its
invitation. Venezuela and Bolivia are still possibilities.

But like
Julian Assange, he may be forced to hole up in some gloomy embassy. Or worse,
he may be handed over to the U.S. for a full program of torture. Yes, they
could force him to watch TV! Or a Senate hearing! Or listen to Lee Greenwood
whine on the radio!

He will surely want to slit his wrists after a few
hours... saving the feds the cost of killing him.

Yes, the music
Snowden will face if he is delivered to the Americans will be grim. He will be
charged with treason... which comes with a funeral dirge.

Here at The
Daily Reckoning, we are shoulder to shoulder with Snowden. "He broke the law,"
say the news reports. That's what we admire about him. Sometimes the law needs
to be broken.

America circa 2013: History will record that laws grew up
like kudzu.

One law told people they had to have health insurance,
whether they wanted it or not. Another told them what they could do with their
money... another gave them the right to ingest certain things, but not
others.

The proliferation of laws made more and more things unlawful.
You cannot smoke a cigarette where you please. You cannot have a private
conversation. You cannot do this... but you must do that.

This trend
gave lawmakers -- including midlevel bureaucrats and unnamed officials -- more
and more power. And took power away from ordinary citizens, who were convinced
that it made sense to limit their rights more and more to preserve their
freedom.

And every day during the summer of 2013, the sun shone and the
kudzu grew and wrapped itself around their necks. Did they fail to report a $5
tip? Did they forget to separate their garbage? Or dare to fix a clogged toilet
without a permit? Americans were so proud of their freedom they didn't notice
how fast they were losing it.

They didn't notice (how could they?) the
huge growth in secret organizations around Washington. They could scarcely
remember going through an airport without standing in "security" lines with
their belts and shoes in their hands. They had to assume (what else could they
do?) that public officials really were working to make their lives safer and
more prosperous.

But as more and more things could get you into trouble
(more than anyone could possibly keep track of), it became more and more
important to keep one's affairs private.

Likewise, the controllers
found it ever more convenient to tap phones and record private email
conversations. Who knows when you might say something they could use against
you!

Is the kind of "big data" the feds are gathering useful? Our
friend Nassim Taleb tells us that they are probably less accurate... or more
prone to misconstruction... than the feds believe:

"We're more fooled
by noise than ever before, and it's because of a nasty phenomenon called
big data.' With big data, researchers have brought cherry-picking to an
industrial level.

"Modernity provides too many variables, but too
little data per variable. So the spurious relationships grow much, much faster
than real information. In other words: Big data may mean more information, but
it also means more false information."

But this is just great for the
feds. They know perfectly well that the fight against terror is a pretext. They
are zombies. The real goal of zombies is to increase their power and wealth at
someone else's expense. And for that, false information is better than the real
thing.

False information can show anything you want it to show -- even
that a 93-year-old great-grandmother is a threat to the nation.

Lies
are more valuable, to them, than the truth.

Edward Snowden came out and
revealed the extent to which the feds -- under the guise of protecting us from
terrorism -- are keeping track of everyone and everyone's business.

This was deeply disturbing to thoughtful people... if there still were
any who feared the rise of an all-knowing, all-powerful Big Brother state from
which no secrets are kept and from which no desires are hidden.

And it
was disturbing too to the Big Brothers. They insist on knowing everything about
everybody else's business. But they made it a crime to reveal what they were up

snitch.

Snowden was paid to snoop, not to snitch.

He was paid

the price for telling the truth.

From actual experience, wind farms produce 1.2 watts per square meter.
Solar Thermal and Photovoltaic methods capture 5 to 6 watts per square meter.
There is no economy of size in either technology. Dividing the watts you need
by those values gives the land area in square meters needed to produce the
juice. The numbers are astronomical

FORMER SCHOTT SOLAR PLANT ON THE MARKET 
The former Schott Solar plant, once one of Albuquerques economic
development success stories, has formally come on the lease market at what
could be described as priced to move. The asking rate is 12 percent lower than
the market average of $6.24 a square foot for manufacturing
spaces.

TRI-STATE SUES PRC OVER RATE SUSPENSION  Tri-State Generation and
Transmission Association has filed a federal complaint in a jurisdictional
dispute with the Public Regulation Commission springing from the suspension of
a rate increase for 12 New Mexico cooperatives. The association claims the PRC
has no authority over interstate wholesale sales and that the state law that
purportedly authorizes the commission to suspend the rates violates the
Constitutions commerce clause.

Please approve
Senate Memorial 34 so that it can quickly move to the Conservation Committee
and the House. This Memorial urges the environment department to fulfill its
2005 Final Order requiring that Sandia Labs perform a study every five years to
evaluate the feasibility of excavating and removing the contents of the Mixed
Waste Landfill versus leaving them in place under the present dirt cover. To
date, three years after the 2010 deadline, this study has still not been done.
At stake is the protection of Albuquerques drinking water aquifer from
contaminants known to be leaking from the landfill. This Memorial asks the
environment department and Sandia to fulfill their commitment to protect public
health.

Theft of $22,036 from our retirement-protected insured Sandia
Federal Laboratory Credit Union is a subject that should be of attention of the
New Mexico Rules Committee at this time.

Reason is that the Insurance
Division of the New Mexico Public Regulations Commission is not following its
rules and will not send us claim forms which it acknowledges it
has.

The testimonial is a variation of
the transfer technique. By having a celebrity, athlete, or other highly visible
person support a point of view brings a great deal of attention to the causes
even though the person giving the testimony may not have any real
qualifications to speak as an expert. The hope is the people will come because
of the notoriety of the speaker and in the process assume expertise.

Having a movie star testify before Congress on an issue about which
they at not an expert. Having the candidate introduced by a well known
athlete.

But the feds are not only creating individual zombies,
they are also creating corporate zombies. An obvious example: green
energy. Without subsidies, loan guarantees, tax benefits and direct giveaways,
the industry as we know it would not exist. Nor would the ethanol industry in

commission or presiding officer, on their own motion after notice and public
hearing, may thereafter terminate the party status of any intervenor.

2 WHEREFORE,

STRIKE ORDER DENYING WILLIAM PAYNE, JAMES AND NICHOL
BROWN, AND ABELARDO SUNIGA'S MOTIONS TO INTERVENE.

$25.00 filing fee required in Subsection B of Section 62-13-2 NMSA 1978.
Pursuant to Section 62-13-2.1 NMSA 1978, the commission may order that the
filing fee be refunded if the commission dismisses the complaint for lack of
probable cause and determines that the complainant filed the complaint in good
faith. The filing of a formal complaint shall commence a formal proceeding. A
formal complaint shall allege that a regulated entity has violated a law, rule,
order, tariff, certificate of public convenience and necessity, or operating
authority promulgated or enforced by the commission. A formal complaint may be
filed by e-mail or facsimile transmission pursuant to other rules of the
commission governing electronic filing and service.

A. Contents: A
formal complaint shall contain:

(1) a clear and concise statement of
the relief sought;

(2) a concise and explicit statement of the facts
which the complainant alleges show a violation;

(3) a statement of any
laws, rules, orders, tariffs, certificates of public convenience and necessity,
or operating authorities alleged to have been violated;

B. Discontinuance of service prohibited: A utility or telecommunications
provider shall not discontinue service to a customer or issue a notice of
discontinuance of service relative to the matter in dispute once a formal
complaint has been filed, except as otherwise authorized by law or commission
rule. Charges which are not in dispute must continue to be paid on time and in
full by the complainant or be subject to other applicable commission rules
regarding disconnection or discontinuance of service.

C. Service of
complaints; answer:

(1) Upon receipt of a formal complaint that is in
substantial compliance with this rule, within a reasonable period of time the
commission shall cause a copy of the complaint to be served on the respondent
accompanied by a notice from the commission calling upon the respondent to
answer the complaint in writing within twenty (20) days of service of the
complaint. For good cause, the commission or presiding officer may order the
answer to be filed in a shorter or longer time. The notice shall also state
that the commission may impose administrative fines or other sanctions if the
commission finds merit to the complaint. The answer may contain an offer to
satisfy the complaint as provided in Subsection D of 1.2.2.15 NMAC. The
commission or presiding officer shall further serve the respondent with notice

the complaint may be dismissed. If there is a partial settlement of the case
with dismissal in part, the complainant may proceed with the remaining issues.
If the commission dismisses a complaint in whole or in part because the
complaint has been satisfied, the commission may continue or initiate further
proceedings if the issues raised in the complaint involve a general matter of
public interest.

E. Contents of answers: The answer shall state in
short and plain terms a respondents defenses to each claim asserted and
shall admit or deny the averments upon which the complainant relies. If the
respondent is without knowledge or information sufficient to form a belief as
to the truth of an averment, the answer shall so state and this shall have the
effect of a denial. Respondent may challenge jurisdiction and address whether
probable cause exists in the answer.

F. Disposition of complaint. Upon
the filing of an answer, the commission shall evaluate jurisdiction and
probable cause, and may, as appropriate:

(1) grant the relief
requested in whole or in part;

(2) dismiss the complaint in whole or
in part;

notice of the public hearing:

(1) be published at least twenty (20)
days prior to the public hearing in a newspaper of general circulation
available in the county where the complaint originated, or

given in such other manner as the commission or presiding officer may deem
proper under the circumstances; costs of publication shall be borne by the
respondent.

ORDER DENYING WILLIAM PAYNE, JAMES AND NICHOL BROWN, AND ABELARDO
SUNIGA'S MOTIONS TO INTERVENE

This matter comes before Frances I.
Sundheim, Hearing Examiner for the New Mexico Public Regulation Commission
("Commission"), upon the Response in Opposition to the Motions to Intervene
("Response") filed by Public Service Company of New Mexico ("PNM") on January
16, 2013. The Hearing Examiner FINDS AND CONCLUDES:

1. On October 5,
2013, PNM filed its Application for Approval of 2012 Electric Energy Efficiency
and Load Management Program Plan and Revisions to Tariff Rider ("Application").
In the Application, PNM seeks Commission approval to implement five new
programs beginning in May 2013; revise the budgets for nine existing programs;
to discontinue an existing program; and for a profit incentive for all programs
pursuant to the New Mexico Renewable Energy Act.

2. On November 8,
2013, the Hearing Examiner issued a Procedural Order which, among other things
(i) ordered PNM to cause a copy of the Notice appended to the Procedural Order
to be published in a newspaper of general circulation available in every county
where PNM provides service on or before mid November 2012; (ii) ordered PNM to
cause a copy of the Notice to be mailed or e-mailed to all of its current
customers; (iii) set a December 31, 2012 intervention deadline; (iv) set a
January 23, 2013 deadline for filing Staff/Intervenor Testimony; and (v)
scheduled a public hearing to begin on February 11, 2013.

4. On January
3, 2013, William Payne, Abelardo Suniga, and James and Nichol Brown ("Movants")
filed with the Commission their Motions for Leave to Intervene and Request for
Discovery ("Motion for Leave to Intervene"). It is unclear whether these
Motions were served on the parties in this matter.

5. Mr. Payne's
Motion for Leave to Intervene states that the natures of Mr. Payne's interests
in this case are:

A. To report the
proceedings of Case NO. 12-00317-UT on the internet so that the New
Mexico public understands the PRC.

B. Expose unintelligence and
incompetence at the PRC and New Mexico state government.

6. The
Motions for Leave to Intervene of Abelardo Suniga and James and Nichol Brown
provide no statement of movants' interests in the proceedings.

7. All
of the Motions were filed after the deadline for intervention of December 31,
2012.

8. When a motion for leave to intervene is contested, the
presiding officer may grant the intervention if it appears after consideration
that the motion discloses that: (a) the movant possesses a substantial interest
in the subject matter of the public hearing; (b) participation of the movant is
substantially in the public interest; or (c) the intervention presents no undue
prejudice to the other parties. 1.2.2.23(D)(2) NMAC.

7. In its
Response to Mr. Payne's Motion for Leave to Intervene, PNM asserts that Mr.
Payne's Motion does not indicate any interest in the actual subject matter of
this proceeding. PNM argues that the interests identified by Mr. Payne, set
forth above in Paragraph 5, demonstrate no basis for granting his Motion. PNM
further argues that granting Mr. Payne's Motion for Leave to Intervene would
likely cause undue prejudice to the existing parties and unduly delay the
proceedings. Accordingly, PNM asserts that Mr. Payne's Motion should be denied.
PNM asserts that the other Movants have provided no statement detailing their
interest in the proceeding as required by Section 1.2.2.23.A(1) NMAC. All
motions were filed after the deadline for intervention and leave to file the
motions out of time was not requested, pursuant to Section 1.2.2.23.D(3) NMAC.

8. PNM is correct that Mr. Payne's Motion for Leave to Intervene does
not indicate any interest in the actual subject matter of this proceeding, and
the other Movants provide no statement of interest. Based on the interests
identified in the Motion, Mr. Payne does not possess a substantial interest in
the subject matter of the public hearing in this case nor is his participation
substantially in the public interest. To the contrary, his intervention would
interject extraneous issues into this case that might delay the case and result
in prejudice to the other parties. Accordingly, Mr. Payne's Motion for Leave to
Intervene should be denied.

9. PNM is correct that Abelardo Suniga and
John and Nichol Brown have made no statement of interest in the case, and have
also filed out of time. Accordingly, Abelardo Suniga and John and Nichol
Brown's Motions for Leave to Intervene should be denied.

IT IS
THEREFORE ORDERED:

A. William Payne's Motion for Leave to Intervene is
denied.

B. Abelardo Suniga and John and Nichol Brown's Motions for
Leave to Intervene are denied.

C. This Order is effective immediately.

C. This Order shall be served on all persons on the attached
Certificate of Service.

Mexico on January 22, 2013. NEW MEXICO PUBLIC REGULATION COMMISSION

Mr John Gaherty and Mr. John Martinez acknowledge existence of claim
forms but forms were never sent.

Felony theft of $22,036 carrying
penalty of nine years in prison has escalated into insurance fraud by NCUSIF
refusing to properly process claim, pay claim and Insurance Division of the PRC
refusing to send claim forms so that we can submit loss claim.

While
this strategy may have worked before because of media control along with
crooked law enforcement officers and corrupt legal system, its success is less
certain now because of Internet, Facebook, Twitter, and blogs.

Liberal
arts 'educated' ploy of "We're going to ignore it and it will go away." and
'thinking'can now be exposed.

But this could be damaging to the New
Mexico economy and does not help get matters settled after a twenty year
conflict.

So let me suggest an alternative of you seeing that we get the
claim forms from the PRC Insurance Division .

1 Convince SLFCU CEO
Christopher Jillson to replace, with interest, the stolen $22,036 into the
retirement-protected savings accounts and possible repercussions if he does
not.

2 Convince Sandia National Laboratories and DOE to settle for back
wages and benefits between 1992 and my retirement in 2002.

Please lets
us know by November 9, 2012 if you are able to do 1 and 2.

The liberal arts 'educated' approach to whether we get our stolen
$22.036 is to have a meeting and take testimony from other liberal arts
'educated.' Defeat of the testimony approach is on our agenda. New Mexico Gas
Company may help?

in that request ... we detail what those programs are
we have testimony that supports it and backing that testimony are part of our
exhibits are scientific studies that show these savings are from national
laboratories .. ah ..then they are adjusted for our own climate in ? out here ?
so its all based on scientific fact and documentation on that. The commission
has it own staff to analyze that and well as the other invervening parties..
They come back to challenge whatever ??? attorneys to bring out further facts
and eventually it get over to the commission to rules on
that.

but Ms. Homan's message is clear.

Testimony is
most important. Facts and scientific studies support testimony.

Proper
methodology, imo, is to conduct competent engineering and scientific studies of
the problem, then prepare a written report with references.

The report
authors should solicit written comments about their report.

Report
comments should be published for public scrutiny. And the report be revised to

The world is
becoming aware, because of Internet and Facebook, that the US likely incited
Saddam Hussein to attack Iran in 1980.

Nojeh Coup

In July 1980, Zbigniew Brzezinski of
the United States met Jordan's King Hussein in Amman to discuss detailed plans
for Saddam Hussein to sponsor a coup in Iran against Khomeini. King Hussein was
Saddam's closest confidant in the Arab world, and served as an intermediary
during the planning. The Iraqi invasion of Iran would be launched under the
pretext of a call for aid from Iranian loyalist officers plotting their own
uprising on July 9, 1980 (codenamed Nojeh, after Shahrokhi/Nojeh air base in
Hamedan). The Iranian officers were organized by Shapour Bakhtiar, who had fled
to France when Khomeini seized power, but was operating from Baghdad and
Sulimaniyah at the time of Brzezinski's meeting with Hussein. However, Khomeini
learned of the Nojeh Coup plan from Soviet agents in France and Latin America.
Shortly after Brzezinski's meeting with Hussein, the President of Iran,
Abolhassan Bani-Sadr quietly rounded up 600 of the loyalist plotters within
Iran, putting an effective end to the Nojeh Coup. Saddam decided to invade
without the Iranian officers' assistance, beginning the Iran-Iraq war on 22
September 1980.

Cost of 'renewables' overwhelms
return Wind and solar consume a vast majority of energy subsidies, but generate
less than 10 percent of total renewable energy output. Wind and solar are not
"new" technologies; They have been used by humans at least as long as have
fossil fuels. Government subsidies and mandates are a losing game. If a given
energy source is effective, consumers will embrace it. If not, they will prove
to be far less "sustainable" than other forms of energy. Paul J. Gessing

This is why Mr Broadhead's and Mr Greers report could be very
important.

Failure to include a reference section in you report
may be serious for the reasons:

1 Data may have been 'invented.'2
Credit should given to sources who supplied the data.

Importance of your
report appears to me

PNM plans to generate future electricity with natural
gas. New Mexico tech gas geologists Broadhead and Price show that natural gas
production is declining in New Mexico with half the gas produced from wells
less than five years old.

Other readers, I believe, need to
know 1] how the data in your report was collected, 2] who collected the data,
and 3 when was it collected.

Therefore, I ask that you reissue your
report with a Reference section.

Failure of you both to positively
acknowledge compliance with my request will result in me filing a formal
complaint of unscholarly work with the president of New Mexico tech. And
request that the president initiate a faculty investigation which results in a
written report.

SCHOTT SOLAR FALLOUT  Schott Solar, which said
Friday it is getting out of the photovoltaic business worldwide, received about
$16 million in state and city incentives and will have to pay back some of
that. The bulk of the money, $15 million from the state, went toward building
the manufacturing plant and, in essence, the state will maintain a major stake
in the building. Various state agencies went to work Friday to help the 200
employees who were laid off.

SCHOTT SOLAR CLOSING ABQ PLANT  Schott Solar told
the Journal it will close its Albuquerque plant Friday and lay off 200 workers.
About 50 employees will stay on to ramp down the plant before it closes for
good later this summer. Schott is closing it photovoltaic panel production, but
will move its concentrated solar operation out of state.

NM OIL AND GAS REPORT  High oil prices and low
natural gas prices continue to drive a lopsided recovery in New Mexicos
oil and gas industry. A new report from Montana-based Headwaters Economics
shows that 86 of the states 90 active rigs are drilling for oil, and only
four for natural gas. Almost all the oil activity is concentrated in the
Permian Basin in southeastern New Mexico, where the industry is enjoying a boom
in production. In the natural gas-rich San Juan Basin in northeastern New
Mexico, new drilling is virtually stalled, and the industry remains mired in
recession.

Ms Glick's denial scanned, posted but still not read yet. Don't rush.
Look how many bad things have happened to the liberal arts 'educated' while we
are waiting to read and respond.

Last year's tsunami crisis left Japan's nuclear future
in doubt and its reactors idled, rendering its huge stockpile of plutonium
useless for now. So, the nuclear industry's plan to produce even more this year
has raised a red flag.

The claims
made by the Coalition for
Clean, Affordable Energy in the Journals May 18 issue are misleading
and erroneous in their portrayal of the attorney generals position on
utility efficiency and renewable programs.

By law the attorney general
is required to represent residential and small-business utility customers
before the Public Regulation Commission. We do this in large part by attempting
to minimize increases in utility rates and guaranteeing that costs for programs
such as efficiency and renewable energy are just and reasonable.

The Associated Press reported from
Vienna at the end of the week that the IAEA had discovered in a bunker at
Iran's Fordo enrichment site. One possible meaning of the find, according to
the report, is that
Iran is moving closer to the 90-percent enrichment level needed
for nuclear weapons. But another explanation could be that the centrifuges
at first emitted uranium enriched to that level, but that their operators
subsequently regulated them to the required level. Israel is demanding the
dismantling of the facility at Fordo, but the Western powers are limiting their
demand to a freezing of enrichment activity there.

Reason is that these energy matters are not only of
New Mexico but of international interest too.

New Mexico tech gas geologists
Broadhead and Price show that natural gas production is declining in New Mexico
with half the gas produced from wells less than five years old.
New Mexicos Natural Gas Resources.

Five new
generators are on track for completion this decade, including two reactors
approved just a few weeks ago (the first new reactor approvals in the US in
over 30 years). Those will add to the 104 reactors that are already in
operation around the country and already produce 20% of the nations
power.

Those reactors will eat up 19,724 tonnes of U3O8
this year, which represents 29% of global uranium demand. If that seems like a
large amount, it is! The US produces more nuclear power than any other country
on earth, which means it consumes more uranium that any other nation. However,
decades of declining domestic production have left the US producing only 4% of
the worlds uranium.

With so little homegrown uranium, the United States
has to import more than 80% of the uranium it needs to fuel its reactors.
Thankfully, for 18 years a deal with Russia has filled that gap. The
Megatons to Megawatts agreement, whereby Russia downblends highly
enriched uranium from nuclear warheads to create reactor fuel, has provided the
US with a steady, inexpensive source of uranium since 1993. The problem is that
the program is coming to an end next year.

Producers typically need $5 [per 1,000
cubic feet] to break even, says David Greely, an energy analyst at
Goldman Sachs (GS). The industry hasnt seen prices consistently over $5
since September 2010, back when there were nearly 1,000 rigs operating in the
U.S. The number of gas rigs peaked near 1,600 in mid-2008, when prices peaked
at $10. (The boom was effectively confirmed in June 2009, when a Colorado
School of Mines report showed that U.S. natural gas reserves were 35 percent
higher than previously estimated.)

Importance of natural gas is that
PNM plans to generate future electricity with natural gas. New Mexico tech gas
geologists Broadhead and Price show that natural gas production is declining in
New Mexico with half the gas produced from wells less than five years
old.

TPTB have been delt a serious blow by Internet, inexpensive
computing equipment, and Google.

And finally, while were on
the topic of energy, heres a submission from Fellow Reckoner, V. Forbes,
who writes in from our old home state of Queensland, Australia. This one ought
to inspire a few responses. Writes Mr. Forbes...

Generating electricity
from solar panels in cold, cloudy Northern Europe is like growing pawpaws in
Iceland  it can be done, but who would be so silly as to try?

Germany was silly enough to try. Germany gets about an hour of useful
sunshine per day in winter  solar power is weakest just when they need it
most. But they have installed about half of the worlds solar panels.
Germanys Q-Cells, once the worlds biggest manufacturer of solar
panels, just went broke. So did four other German solar companies.

Sunny California also tried, but despite a half billion
dollar loan from US tax payers, solar panel manufacturer Solyndra went broke.
Solar Trust of America, recently offered $2 billion in loan guarantees by US
tax payers, has also filed for bankruptcy.

All the European PIIGS have
tried  and the waste of taxpayer funds on failing green energy schemes is
a major reason for their parlous financial state.

The only sensible
participant in the solar industry is China  they make panels very cheaply
using coal or nuclear power and sell them to green dreamers.

The reason
green energy creates so much red ink is pretty obvious  it just needs one
days observation of the sun.

Full strength solar energy is
available around midday for maybe 8 hours each day, providing the skies are
clear, and there is no dust on the panels, and you are in a tropical zone. For
the other 16 hours of the day, most electricity must come from reliable energy
sources like gas, hydro, coal or nuclear. This about doubles capital and
operating costs for no increase in output. Google 'hybrid owners one and
done'

Only 35 percent of hybrid vehicle owners chose to purchase a
hybrid again when they returned to the market in 2011, according to auto
information company R.L. Polk & Co.

If you factor out the
super-loyal Toyota Prius buyers, the repurchase rate drops to under 25 percent.

Speculation is building as to just when the
world-ending fighting will begin (if it does, at all). Specifically, there's a
slow clock running on Iran, which is coming into talks on April 23rd with what
most experts agree are less than "clean hands" on the matter of weapons
development. And backing them up? Well, there's a worrisome reports that "Russia is massing troops on Iran's northern border waiting for
a Western attack."

These recent findings prompted Public Regulation
Commissioner Jason Marks, one of the state regulators who oversees PNM, to say
in a recent news report that PNM should redirect its resources toward the
future, not the past.

The past that Marks is
referring to is PNMs 40-year-old coal-burning power plant San Juan
Generating Station near Farmington. Its in dire need of expensive
pollution control upgrades.

The future Marks is talking
about? Renewable energy production. Investing in clean energy projects creates
jobs and taps renewable wind and solar resources that are abundant in our state
and come without the high pollution, health and water use costs of coal.

From actual experience, wind farms produce 1.2 watts per square meter.
Solar Thermal and Photovoltaic methods capture 5 to 6 watts per square meter.
There is no economy of size in either technology. Dividing the watts you need
by those values gives the land area in square meters needed to produce the
juice. The numbers are astronomical
